Summary Genetic analysis of esterase polymorphism in rye inbred lines with isoelectric focusing in polyacrylamide flat gels yielded evidence for the existence of at least ten esterase loci, Est 1–Est 10. The loci can be attributed to four different linkage groups (Est 1/ Est 2/Est 3/Est 5/Est 6/Est 7), (Est 4), (Est 8/Est 9), and (Est 10). Loci Est 5/Est 6/Est 7 and Est 8/Est 9, respectively, are tightly linked with a maximum recombination frequency of 0.2% and can therefore be regarded as compound loci which possibly originated in tandem duplications. 相似文献

Summary A distorted segregation of esterase alleles at the complex loci, Est1, Est2 and Est4, was found in an F2 population. This distortion is typical for cross combinations between the Ga2Ga2 and ga2ga2 genotypes responsible for segregation distortion, since the Ga2 locus is linked with the complex loci encoding the esterase isozymes. The segregation of esterase isozyme patterns in F2 populations between 473 varieties of barley and a tester of ga2ga2 genotype was examined, and the genotypes inducing segregation distortion were detected. Varieties with a ga2ga2 genotype are widely distributed throughout the world, whereas Ga2Ga2 varieties are found only in eastern and southern regions of Asia, from Japan to North India, with a low frequency. In varieties collected from these regions, some associations were detected between alleles at the Ga2 locus and esterase isozyme patterns. Additionally, most of the Ga2 barley varieties are naked and possess a BtBtbt2bt2 genotype for a non-brittle rachis. 相似文献

The least ambiguous genetic markers are those based on completely characterized DNA sequence polymorphisms. Unfortunately, assaying allele states by allele sequencing is slow and cumbersome. The most desirable type of genetic marker would be unambiguous, inexpensive to assay and would be assayable singly or in parallel with hundreds of other markers (multiplexable). In this report we sequenced alleles at 54 barley (Hordeum vulgare ssp. vulgare) loci, 38 of which contained single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Many of these 38 loci contained multiple polymorphisms, and a total of 112 polymorphisms were scored in five barley genotypes. The polymorphism data set was analyzed both by using the individual mutations as cladistic characters and by reducing data for each locus to haplotypes. We compared the informativeness of these two approaches by consensus tree construction and bootstrap analysis. Both approaches provided similar results. Since some of the loci sequenced contained insertion/deletion events and multiple point mutations, we thought that these multiple-mutated loci might represent old alleles that predated the divergence of barley from H. spontaneum. We evaluated sequences from a sample of H. spontaneum accessions from the Eastern Mediterranean, and observed similar alleles present in both cultivated barley and H. spontaneum, suggesting either multiple domestication events or multiple transfers of genes between barley and its wild ancestor. 相似文献

Five barley chloroplast DNA microsatellites (cpSSRs) were used to study genetic relationships among a set of 186 barley accessions—34 Hordeum vulgare ssp. spontaneum (HS accessions) from Morocco, Ethiopia, Cyprus, Crete, Libya, Iraq, Iran, Turkey, Afghanistan and Israel, 122 H. vulgare ssp. vulgare landraces (HV landraces) from Spain, Bolivia (old Spanish introductions), Morocco, Libya and Ethiopia and 20 modern European spring barleys (HV cultivars). All loci were polymorphic in the material studied, with the number of alleles per locus ranging from two to three. Fifteen multi-locus haplotypes were observed, 11 in HS accessions and seven in HV landraces and cultivars. Of the seven haplotypes found in the HV lines, three were shared with the HS accessions, and four were unique. Cluster analysis revealed two main groups, one consisting of HS accessions from Ethiopia and the HV landraces from Spain, Bolivia (old Spanish), Morocco and Ethiopia, whereas the other larger group contained all of the other accessions studied. Based on these grouping and the existence of haplotypes found in the HV landraces and cultivars but not in the HS wild barley, a polyphyletic origin is proposed for barley, with further centres of origin in Ethiopia and the Western Mediterranean. 相似文献

One hundred and six accessions of wild barley collected from Tibet, China, including 50 entries of the two-rowed wild barley Hordeum vulgare ssp. spontaneum (HS), 29 entries of the six-rowed wild barley Hordeum vulgare ssp. agriocrithon (HA), and 27 entries of the six-rowed wild barley Hordeum vulgare ssp. agriocrithon var. lagunculiforme (HL), were analyzed using 30 SSR markers selected from the seven barley linkage groups for studying genetic diversity and evolutionary relationship of the three subspecies of Tibetan wild barley to cultivated barley in China. Over the 30 genetic loci that were studied, 229 alleles were identified among the 106 accessions, of which 70 were common alleles. H. vulgare ssp. spontaneum possesses about thrice more private alleles (2.83 alleles/locus) than HS (0.93 alleles/locus), whereas almost no private alleles were detected in HL. The genetic diversity among-subspecies is much higher than that within-subspecies. Generally, the genetic diversity among the three subspecies is of the order HS > HL > HA. Phylogenetic analysis of the 106 accessions showed that all the accessions of HS and HA was clustered in their own groups, whereas the 27 accessions of HL were separated into two groups (14 entries with group HS and the rest with group HA). This indicated that HL was an intermediate form between HS and HA. Based on this study and previous works, we suggested that Chinese cultivated barley might evolve from HS via HL to HA. 相似文献

Individuals from natural populations of the leopard frog, Rana pipiens, were analyzed for electrophoretic differences in blood proteins and enzymes from an amputated digit. The proteins examined represent products of 72 loci. Presumptive heterozygotes at multiple loci were selected for experimental crosses. Mendelian inheritance of 18 protein variations were demonstrated in the offspring. Tests for linkage or independent assortment were performed for 75 locus pairs. Three linkage groups were established. Linkage group 1 contains two loci, aconitase-1 (Acon1) and serum albumin (Alb), with a 19% recombination frequency between them. Linkage group 2 contains four loci, glyoxalase (Gly), acid phosphatase-1 (Ap1), acid phosphatase-2 (AP2), and esterase-5 (Est5). The data show the relationships Gly-21.1%-AP1-0%-AP2-6.3%-Est5, and Gly-25.6%-Est5. Linkage group 3 consists of four closely linked esterase loci. The data, Est1-5.1%-Est6, Est6-1.8%-Est10-1.9%-Est4 and Est6-3.0%-Est4, do not establish a complete order but suggest that Est10 is between Est4 and Est6. These results, with data demonstrating apparent independent assortment of 67 other locus pairs, provide a foundation for establishing the frog genetic map.The project was supported by Grant No. RR-00572 from the Division of Research Resources, National Institutes of Health.

Detection and utilization of genetic variation available in the germplasm collection for crop improvement have been the prime
activities of breeders. Here a set of ICARDA barley germplasm collection comprising of 185 cultivated (Hordeum vulgare L.) and 38 wild (H. spontaneum L.) genotypes originated from 30 countries of four continents was genotyped with 68 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)
and 45 microsatellite or simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers derived from genes (expressed sequence tags, ESTs). As two SNP
markers provided 2 and 3 datapoints, a total of 71 SNPs were surveyed that yielded a total of 143 alleles. The number of SSR
alleles per locus ranged from 3 to 22 with an average of 7.9 per marker. Average PIC (polymorphism information content) value
for SSR and SNP markers were recorded as 0.63 and 0.38, respectively. Heterogeneity was recorded at both SNP and SSR loci
in an average of 5.72 and 12.42% accessions, respectively. Genetic similarity matrices for SSR and SNP allelic data were highly
correlated (r = 0.75, P < 0.005) and therefore allelic data for both markers were combined and analyzed for understanding the genetic relationships
among the germplasm surveyed. Majority of clusters/subclusters were found to contain genotypes from the same geographic origins.
While comparing the genetic diversity, the accessions coming from Middle East Asia and North East Asia showed more diversity
as compared to that of other geographic regions. Majority of countries representing Africa, Middle East Asia, North East Asia
and Arabian Peninsula included the genotypes that contained rare alleles. As expected, spontaneum accessions, as compared to vulgare accessions, showed a higher number of total alleles, higher number of alleles per locus, higher effective number of alleles
and higher allelic richness and a higher number of rare alleles were observed. In summary, the examined ICARDA germplasm set
showed ample natural genetic variation that can be harnessed for future breeding of barley as climate change and sustainability
have become important throughout all growing areas of the world, drought/heat tolerance being the most important ones. 相似文献

Abstract This paper investigates the esterase variation and genetic structure in three geographic populations of Sitodiplosis mosellana (Géhin) in western China by PAGE. The localities surveyed are Gaolan (36.3°N, 103.9°E) and Wuwei (37.9°N, 102.6°E) in spring wheat region and Chang'an (34. 1°N, 108.9° E) in winter wheat region. The results suggest that the esterase is coded by two loci: Est‐1 and Est‐2. Est‐1 is coded by a plastogene producing only one band that is the fastest on the gel among all bands. The Est‐2 is duplicated loci with 8 alleles, namely, a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, which produce altogether 8 bands in all the populations and 1–4 bands in individual samples. There are 19 zymogram types observed in the three geographic populations. Seventeen zymogram types emerge in Chang'an population, but 5 and 4 zymogram types are found respectively in Gaolan and Wuwei populations. II2 zymogram type is the commonest in all the populations. The alleles that had the highest frequencies in all the populations are d, e, g. All 8 alleles at the Est2 were observed in Chang'an population, but only total 3 alleles‐d, e, g at the Est‐2 appeared in Gaolan and Wuwei populations. The analysis of genetic identity and cluster (UPGMA) on the alloenzyme indicates that the relationship between the two populations of spring wheat region seems to be closer, as compared with the relationship between spring wheat population and winter wheat population. It is evident that there exists some infraspecific variation caused mainly by genetic drift in S. mosellana and the gene flow among the populations possibly took place to some extent. 相似文献

To enhance the marker density of existing genetic maps of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), a new set of microsatellite markers containing dinucleotide motifs was developed from genomic clones. Out of 254 primer pairs tested, a total of 167 primer pairs were classifed as functional in a panel of six barley cultivars and three H. spontaneum accessions, and of those, 127 primer pairs resulting in 133 loci were either mapped or located onto chromosomes. The polymorphism information content (PIC) ranged from 0.05 to 0.94 with an average of 0.60. The number of alleles per locus varied from 1 to 9. On average, 3.9 alleles per primer pair were observed. The RFLP frameworks of two previously published linkage maps were used to locate a total of 115 new microsatellite loci on at least one mapping population. The chromosomal assignment of 48 mapped loci was corroborated on a set of wheat-barley chromosome addition lines; 18 additional loci which were not polymorphic in the mapping populations were assigned to chromosomes by this method. The microsatellites were located on all seven linkage groups with four significant clusters in the centromeric regions of 2H, 3H, 6H and 7H. These newly developed microsatellites improve the density of existing barley microsatellite maps and can be used in genetic studies and breeding research.Communicated by G. Wenzel 相似文献

Safflower (Carthamus tinctorious L.) is valued as a source of high quality vegetable oil. 20 ISSR primers were used to assess the genetic diversity of 18 accessions of safflower collected from different geographical regions of Iran. The ISSR primers combinations revealed 57.6 % polymorphism, among 338 genetic loci amplified from the accessions. The sum of effective number of alleles and observed number of alleles were 29.76 and 36.77, respectively. To understand genetic relationships among these cultivars, Jacquards’ similarity coefficient and UPGMA clustering algorithm were applied to the ISSR marker data set. ISSR markers grouped accessions into two main clusters and four sub clusters. Also, the principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) supported the cluster analysis results. The results showed these genotypes have high genetic diversity, and can be used for alternative safflower breeding program. 相似文献

Distribution of allozymic alleles and genetic diversity in the American Barley Core Collection 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

A survey of allozymic alleles and genetic diversity was made for 151 accessions of the American Barley Core Collection. A
total of 25 alleles at ten loci were observed. Two loci were monomorphic. The average diversity index for individual loci
ranged between 0.026 and 0.649. Most significant differences in allelic frequency and genetic diversity value were found between
spring and winter barley. Spring barley showed a greatly higher average diversity than winter barley (t=2.124, P=0.071). The smallest differences in allelic frequencies and diversity values were observed between the two geographical regions,
North and South America. Rare alleles were detected only in a few accessions. Seven rare alleles were associated with spring
barley. The genetic similarities among the 151 accessions ranged from 0.20 to 1.00, which showed that a high level of genetic
variability exists in this set of core accessions. Cluster analysis and principal coordinate analysis did not give clear-cut
separation of different types of barley, but most of the winter barley accessions were closely associated.

Polymorphism of hordeins encoded by the Hrd A, Hrd B, and Hrd F loci was analyzed in 84 accessions of local barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) varieties from major agricultural regions of Afghanistan using starch gel electrophoresis. Forty alleles of the Hrd A locus with the frequencies from 0.12 to 32.73%, 62 alleles of the Hrd B locus with the frequencies from 0.12 to 14.29%, and five alleles of the Hrd F locus with the frequencies from 0.59 to 32.15% have been identified. The conclusion about genetic similarity of barley populations
from different regions of Afghanistan is made on the basis of cluster analysis of the matrix of allele frequencies in barley
populations from 31 localities. The local barley populations form four unequal clusters. The largest cluster I includes populations
from 14 localities of Afghanistan. The second largest cluster IV consists of populations from ten localities, and clusters
II and III comprise populations from four and three localities, respectively. Each of the four clusters includes populations
from different regions of northern and southern Afghanistan. Based on our results, we conclude that the diversity of hordein-coding
loci and the distribution of their alleles among different regions of Afghanistan are the consequences of introduction of
barley landraces and their distribution over trade routes. 相似文献

Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum), one of the world’s major crops, is genetically very diverse. In order to select a representative sample of the worldwide
wheat diversity, 3,942 accessions originating from 73 countries were analysed with a set of 38 genomic simple sequence repeat
(SSR) markers. The number of alleles at each locus ranged from 7 to 45 with an average of 23.9 alleles per locus. The 908
alleles detected were used together with passport data to select increasingly large sub-samples that maximised both the number
of observed alleles at SSR loci and the number of geographical origins. A final core of 372 accessions (372CC) was selected
with this M strategy. All the different geographical areas and more than 98% of the allelic diversity at the 38 polymorphic
loci were represented in this core. The method used to build the core was validated, by using a second set of independent
markers [44 expressed sequence tag (EST)-SSR markers] on a larger sample of 744 accessions: 96.74% of the alleles observed
at these loci had already been captured in the 372CC. So maximizing the diversity with a first set of markers also maximised
the diversity at a second independent set of locus. To relate the genetic structure of wheat germplasm to its geographical
origins, the two sets of markers were used to compute a dissimilarity matrix between geographical groups. Current worldwide
wheat diversity is clearly divided according to wheat’s European and Asian origins, whereas the diversity within each geographical
group might be the result of the combined effects of adaptation of an initial germplasm to different environmental conditions
and specific breeding practices. Seeds from each accession of the 372CC were multiplied and are now available to the scientific
community. The genomic DNA of the 372CC, which can be entirely contained in a 384-deep-well storage plate, will be a useful
tool for future studies of wheat genetic diversity.

Genetic variability of cultivated and wild barley, Hordeum vulgare ssp. vulgare and spontaneum, respectively, was assessed by RFLP analysis. The material consisted of 13 European varietes, single-plant offspring lines of eight land races from Ethiopia and Nepal, and five accessions of ssp. spontaneum from Israel, Iran and Turkey. Seventeen out of twenty-one studied cDNA and gDNA probes distributed across all seven barley chromosomes revealed polymorphism when DNA was digested with one of four restriction enzymes. A tree based on genetic distances using frequencies of RFLP banding patterns was estimated and the barley lines clustered into five groups reflecting geographical origin. The geographical groups of land-race lines showed less intragroup variation than the geographical groups of spontaneum lines. The group of European varieties, representing large variation in agronomic traits, showed an intermediate level. The proportion of gene diversity residing among geographical groups (FST) varied from 0.19 to 0.94 (average 0.54) per RFLP pattern, indicating large diversification between geographical groups. 相似文献

Fusarium head blight (FHB) is a threat to barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) production in many parts of the world. A number of barley accessions with partial resistance have been reported and used in mapping experiments to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with FHB resistance. Here, we present a set of barley germplasm that exhibits FHB resistance identified through screening a global collection of 23,255 wild (Hordeum vulgare ssp. spontaneum) and cultivated (Hordeum vulgare ssp. vulgare) accessions. Seventy-eight accessions were classified as resistant or moderately resistant. The collection of FHB resistant accessions consists of 5, 27, 46 of winter, wild and spring barley, respectively. The population structure and genetic relationships of the germplasm were investigated with 1,727 Diversity Array Technology (DArT) markers. Multiple clustering analyses suggest the presence of four subpopulations. Within cultivated barley, substructure is largely centered on spike morphology and growth habit. Analysis of molecular variance indicated highly significant genetic variance among clusters and within clusters, suggesting that the FHB resistant sources have broad genetic diversity. The haplotype diversity was characterized with DArT markers associated with the four FHB QTLs on chromosome 2H bin8, 10 and 13 and 6H bin7. In general, the wild barley accessions had distinct haplotypes from those of cultivated barley. The haplotype of the resistant source Chevron was the most prevalent in all four QTL regions, followed by those of the resistant sources Fredrickson and CIho4196. These resistant QTL haplotypes were rare in the susceptible cultivars and accessions grown in the upper Midwest USA. Some two- and six-rowed accessions were identified with high FHB resistance, but contained distinct haplotypes at FHB QTLs from known resistance sources. These germplasm warrant further genetic studies and possible incorporation into barley breeding programs. 相似文献

Hordein Polymorphism in Ethiopian Barley 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Using starch gel electrophoresis, polymorphism of hordein-encoding loci Hrd A, Hrd B, and Hrd Fwas studied in 147 accessions of local Ethiopian barley cultivars. Loci Hrd A, Hrd B, and Hrd Fwere shown to have 26, 36, and 4 alleles, respectively. The allele frequencies in the collection examined varied from 0.17 to 45.72%. For loci Hrd Aand Hrd B, families of blocks of hordein components were found. Based on the allele frequencies and their combinations at loci Hrd Aand Hrd Bas well as the numbers of families of component blocks of hordeins A and B, we identified genotypes that could be considered as the most ancient in Ethiopia. A catalog of hordein variant encoded by these loci was created. The list of hordein genetic formulas for the studied accessions is presented. 相似文献

Background
Association mapping is receiving considerable attention in plant genetics for its potential to fine map quantitative trait loci (QTL), validate candidate genes, and identify alleles of interest. In the present study association mapping in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is investigated by associating DNA polymorphisms with variation in grain quality traits, plant height, and flowering time to gain further understanding of gene functions involved in the control of these traits. We focused on the four loci BLZ1, BLZ2, BPBF and HvGAMYB that play a role in the regulation of B-hordein expression, the major fraction of the barley storage protein. The association was tested in a collection of 224 spring barley accessions using a two-stage mixed model approach. 相似文献18.

Maize (Zea mays L.) harbours significant genetic diversity not only in its centre of origin (Mexico) but also in several countries worldwide, including India, in the form of landraces. In this study, DNA fingerprinting of 48 landrace accessions from diverse regions of India was undertaken using 42 fluorescent dye-labeled Simple Sequence Repeat (SSR) markers, followed by allele resolution using DNA sequencer and analysis of molecular diversity within and among these landraces. The study revealed a large number of alleles (550), with high mean number of alleles per locus (13.1), and Polymorphism Information Content (PIC) of 0.60, reflecting the level of diversity in the landrace accessions. Besides identification of 174 unique alleles in 44 accessions, six highly frequent SSR alleles were detected at six loci (phi014, phi090, phi112, umc1367, phi062 and umc1266) with individual frequencies greater than 0.75, indicating that chromosomal regions harboring these SSR alleles are not selectively neutral. F statistics revealed very high genetic differentiation, population subdivision and varying levels of inbreeding in the landraces. Analysis of Molecular Variance showed that 63 % of the total variation in the accessions could be attributed to within-population diversity, and 37 % represented between population diversity. Cluster analysis of SSR data using Nei’s genetic distance and UPGMA revealed considerable genetic diversity in these populations, although no clear separation of accessions was observed based on their geographic origin. 相似文献

Starch gel electrophoretic analyses of crude seed extracts of Cucurbita ecuadorensis, C. maxima, their F1 and F2, and three of the four possible interspecific backcrosses reveal that the genus is polymorphic for alpha-naphthyl acetate esterases (Est) and leucine aminopeptidase (LAP). The two electrophoretic forms of both Est and LAP are controlled by codominant alleles. The two loci do not exhibit linkage. Neither the LAP nor the Est phenotypes exhibit a significant deviation from the expected 1:1 ratio in interspecific backcrosses when the donor parent alleles are transmitted through female gametes, but there is a significant deviation for Est when transmission is through male gametes. Differential gametic selection involving the Est-1 locus suggests structural differences between the genomes of the parental species for the chromosomal region in which this locus occurs. No structural differences are indicated between the parental genomes for the chromosome region bearing the Lap-1 locus. 相似文献

We analyzed genetic diversity in the storage protein hordein encoded at Hor-1, Hor-2 and Hor-3 loci in seeds from 211 accessions of wild close relatives of barley, Hordeum vulgare ssp. agriocrithon and H. vulgare ssp. spontaneum. Altogether 32, 27 and 13 different phenotypes were found for Hor-1, Hor-2 and Hor-3, respectively. A comparison of our results with those of previous studies indicates that Tibetan samples reflect the highest diverse level of hordein phenotypes when compared to samples from Israel and Jordan. This high degree of polymorphism supports the hypothesis that Tibet is one of the original centers of H. vulgare L.Communicated by H.F. Linskens 相似文献
